Blocked Sidewalk

A car with NY license plates has been parked in this driveway but completely blocking the sidewalk all winter. Tickets have been issued but no change. A new car was there today so the residence does not appear to be vacant, they just seem to be ignoring the citations. It is a steep and uneven area to walk in anyway and having to traverse around this car creates difficulty to anyone with a mobility challenge. Especially when the ground is wet and muddy.

There appears to be a broken water main because water has been rising to the surface on my property the past 5 days. My front north sidewalk (photo attached), east sidewalk, and south concrete garage floor have been soaked for the past 5 days. My basement is dry and no pipes are leaking in my house. I live next to the lane that has a main water pipe underground. Please check this out as soon as possible.
Thank you,

This evening, March 4, 2024, around 6:11pm, we had 3 male adults ride down the B-Line trail on little motorbikes (not sure what they are technically called). There were 3 individuals. They were at the parking garage off 10th Street before going down the sidewalk to the B-Line, crossing Rogers St. at the trail Cross, and continuing down the B-Line trail towards Fairview St. I was able to take a quick 5second video of them and I screen grabbed a photo of each rider off of that. I however was only able to upload one photo to the form here.
I'm not sure if they are allowed on the trail but I was thinking they weren't. If they are allowed it seems very dangerous to other trail users. If not allowed on the trail I am wondering if maybe the city could post a reminder on social media and possibly add signs at different points along the trail to remind users as to what is and isn't allowed on the trail.
If you all want the video clip or the other screen grabbed images I am more than happy to get them to you all.
Thanks for keeping our trail safe. It's one of my favorite things about Bloomington!

When it rains, water sheds to the west off the B-Line and drops sediment on the sidewalk along Kirkwood. It seems preferable that the water would shed toward Morton Street where the storm water drains can other job. The sediment deposit from the rain last week is still covering the sidewalk on the north side of Kirkwood.
